High School Musical Makin' the Cut!
High School Musical Makin' the Cut! est un jeu de musique édité par Buena Vista Games et sorti sur Nintendo DS le 14 septembre 2007. Le titre permet au joueur de parcourir les États-Unis en incarnant l'un des six personnages de High School Musical ou en créant un nouveau protagoniste. La presse a salué son aspect divertissant, comme l'a relevé IGN qui a jugé le jeu amusant malgré la simplicité graphique, un mode histoire court et un gameplay limité, tandis que VideoGamer a souligné qu'il s'adresse avant tout aux amateurs de jeux type SingStar. Certains joueurs sur Metacritic y ont vu l'une des meilleures comédies de l'histoire du jeu vidéo, recommandant l'expérience pour ses moments humoristiques.

Critiques de la Presse (Metacritic)
« At the end of the day, if you're not a fan of the SingStar games, then this is NOT for you. But if you like to swap your joypad for a microphone every now and then, and you don't mind tackling some highly cheesy tunes (many of which you'll find yourself humming for weeks to come - they really are that catchy) then you really should give this a chance. »
« Is this game fun? Yes, and I don't even watch these movies. However, everything about it -- simplistic graphics, a short Story Mode and a limited set of gameplay modes -- screams budget title, but here we are being charged full price. »
« Sing It! is a title that can easily be enjoyed by a wide audience, however, playing the same short game over and over again for a high score to get at the bonus features gets old fast. Ultimately, the missing depth and short length make it a hard sell for the price of the package. Still, the gameplay is solid and it is an entertaining experience while it lasts. »
« If you like the movies, then add a couple of points to the score and purchase away; if you haven't bought it already, that is. Unforunately, we didn't like the movies, so it's difficult to see past the dodgy presentation and lacking gameplay. Stick with SingStar. »
« Almost a 10-year-old girl's dream come true, but too short and too no-frills: could have been a lot more. [Jan 2008, p.101] »
« It's all a bit too wholesome, and I'd sooner be singing along to The Sound of Music if I had a choice. Start waving your jazz hands in the air in protest and demand a proper Singstar Musicals package instead. »
« Fans might enjoy the sing-a-long. But the game part of this is seriously lacking. [Feb 2008, p.68] »
« It's more bad karaoke compilation than game. [Christmas 2007, p.82] »

« [SPOILER ALERT: This review contains spoilers.] »
« By far the best comedy in video game history. The$4 Logitech USB mic has the ability to make everything 5 times funnier. Highly recommend for some good laughs. »
